"Could it be soone in the Divinity Transformation Realm did it? And then erased the mory?" Lei Wuji said.
Hou Mountain said, "That I don’t know. The first ones to arrive were people from Cangyan Daoist Palace, and several Supre Elders of your Taiqing Sect. The most suspicious signs point to just your two families."
Facing Hou Mountain’s blunt words, Cao Zhengyang and the others didn’t know how to respond.
Yet, they could understand his feelings.
They had always provided great assistance in the Five Sects trial, and in the end, the Holy dicine, nurtured for a thousand years, vanished without a trace. When the theft occurred, the only two who arrived rapidly were the Divinity Transformation Realm from these two families. How do you explain that?
"Fourth Brother, your nose is quite sensitive, we’ll rely on you later!" Yan Xiaohu whispered.
If we could help Senior Hou Mountain solve the case, our Three Sects alliance would gain another ally.
Lu Yaoyao, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but mutter in a low voice, "It’s been over a year, any scent would have dissipated long ago."
Zhou Qing said nothing, rely followed the Sect Leader and the others deeper into the cave, his eyes constantly scanning around, not missing any potential clues.
Soon, they saw a giant jade bed appear, with so strands of hair on it. Clearly, this was where Hou Mountain cultivated.
"What a treasure!" Yan Xiaohu’s eyes sparkled as he looked at the jade bed.
Assuming the guess is correct, this jade bed is entirely made of Jade Spirit Stone. Cultivating on it not only yields twice the result with half the effort but also helps calm the mind, its value imasurable.
Damn, such extravagant enjoynt. Yan Xiaohu’s drool was almost dripping.
Zhou Qing was equally amazed. Turning around, he saw a giant stone pillar-like weapon, emitting waves of scorching heat.
This must be Hou Mountain’s weapon, indeed showing no restraint.
So many visitors to his Cave Mansion, and he just casually discarded these items as if he didn’t care at all.
The group continued deeper, seeing many valuable crystals on the walls, and even a large patch of Spirit Mushrooms.
Spirit Mushroom is the main herb for making Acupoint Opening Pill. For Foundation Establishnt cultivators aiming to break through to Golden Core, consuming one greatly increases the success rate.
Zhou Qing had seen them before in the Pocket World simulation, harvesting and refining after passing through the Gravity Zone.
But there were only a dozen or so. In front of them now, there were likely thousands, leaving everyone in awe.
However, for a Demon King at the Divinity Transformation Realm Great Perfection, these are rely snacks.
"It’s here!"
As the group passed the Spirit Mushrooms, Hou Mountain suddenly stopped and pointed forward.
A separate cave appeared before them, with a small spring made of rocks on the ground, filled with a reddish liquid, the extrely rare Yang Fire Liquid.
In the middle, there was an arm-thick pit, probably where the Fusang Lingkui once grew.
Now the Holy dicine is gone, leaving only this empty pit, particularly glaring.
"Everyone, use your thods!" Hou Mountain gestured, then stood aside.
Cao Zhengyang and the others exchanged glances, first bringing several Sniffing Red Dogs to start sniffing around.
The outco was predictable, no clues at all.
Next, Cao Zhengyang, Lei Wuji, and Immortal Xuan You used their own skills to carefully search.
Sikong Yan and Master Xuanji also ca in, standing behind the crowd, shaking their heads slightly as they watched.
Ti passed bit by bit, the three of them looked somber, unable to find any clues.
If you’d have called us right after it was stolen, we might’ve found sothing. But now, after so long, it’s impossible to investigate.
"You try!" Cao Zhengyang said to the three elders in the Three Sects who were best at finding clues.
The elders didn’t dare delay, stepping forward and using their utmost efforts to investigate.
One batch after another tried, but still found nothing. Eventually, even Zhou Qing and the others started to search.
Clearly, the area was small, not much to discover.
Even using "Daily Reflection", the feedback would probably just state a missing Holy dicine, offering no substantial help.
But there was no choice but to try everything at this point.
As Zhou Qing prepared to use it, Hou Mountain, already impatient, seed to understand sothing from their expressions.
This matter indeed troubled them. After so much ti, finding clues was difficult. Patting his hands, he spoke.
"Everyone, I’ve acted cautiously. When I left, I kept an Imaging Stone in the cave, just in case. Unexpectedly, it recorded sothing."
Hou Mountain took out an Imaging Stone after speaking.
Everyone’s eyes brightened collectively.
Why didn’t he say so earlier, what did it record?
Demon King Hou Mountain quickly scanned everyone, finding none showing guilt.
It might not really be them.
Even if it wasn’t, they had to repay the favor accumulated over the years.
Hou Mountain didn’t speak more, imdiately activating it.
Soon, a Spirit dicine enveloped in mist, resembling a sunflower, appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Its stem was slender, the surface an ancient bronze hue, with a golden vortex slowly rotating in the center, absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Qi.
